For those of you who foolishly believe that men and women are equal, why do you believe this?

Define "equal".

They are equal, but not at the same things. For example, men can lift more heavy objects, but women can give birth. You might laugh at a girl trying to do push ups, but try passing a watermelon through your backend if you're a guy and see how it goes.

Agree. I can't boil water, but my husband made a lovely Thai Chicken and Coconut soup with fresh basil last night. So there's that difference.

Walk down any street in any town and you'll see its very easy to find men that are weaker than women.
Heck, the weakest man in the world may be weaker than the weakest woman in the world.
And I'm in no way a supporter of women, just that there is a huge population of weak men, especially in this nerdy internet era.

Water is obviously part of the patriarchy.

Men and women are equal, but in different ways. OP, why do you think they are not equal?

I do believe women have more tenacity to bear hardship as well as more intuitive intelligence when it comes to dealing with people.

and in a short answer. They are equal in value. Different in roles.


At least that's the way it should be for things to work as intended.

Call me old fashioned but a male is meant for a female and out biology proves this point.

I don't see two same sex couples having babies unless it is unnatural.

It's a pretty easy argument to win actually.

Elaborate on your perceived differences between men and women.

Incorrect. Women are far more valuable than men, and men are expendable throughout the history.

A society with few men can easily survive, but with few women, a society would collapse as there wouldn't be enough women to give birth to the future generations.

This is at least one of the reasons that mostly men fight battles, stay on sinking ships, do all the dangerous works.

Men and women are equal in terms of opportunities and votes.
